I want to leave an indelible mark upon this world
I want to leave the earth untouched, unmarred
I want to help, I want to shape the greater good
If we can’t make it better, we should leave it alone
I want to be in the spotlight of freedom
Let me remain in the shadow of freedom
I want to be remembered, a force of change that matters
I want to be forgotten, my name struck out if reckoned
Let my deeds not be footnotes in History
My donations shall remain anonymous
Acclaimed even in my sleep
Please leave me alone
I matter most because I’m better than most
What matters most is that you bettered yourself
Let people follow in my trailblazing footsteps
Let people see the steps in the snow and let them fade
I am what I am and what I do
We are drowning in ourselves in action
Let my name echo in eternity
Let my name be lost for all eternity
